ALI. KINDS OF SKIRTS.
.Ihe set of skirt is the great point
lnlts manufacture, anu care must be
taken that it hangs evenly. that it does
not sag on the sides, is not too short di-
rectlyiin front, and adaDtS itself to the
motions of the wearer. Fashionable
dressmakers make their customers
stand, walk and sit in various positions,
and IN some eases, as for a Lenten suit
ora bridal dress, kneel with the skirt
0nibefOre it is pronounced perfect fit.
The steelS are always tied on the wearer,
both for the correct set and for her COM
fort, since if they exceed certain de-
gree OF tightneSS, her powers OF lOcomo-
ton are considerably interfered with.
Long straight draperieS are still the
height of style, the very latest fancy
being for very long draperieS in front
and back, and very short, or even
omitted altogether, on the sides. Foot
plaitingS are rarely used on any but thin
dresses, or, when used, are almost
hidden by the edge of the skirt which
falls over them. f'.t

five straight breadthS of single-width
material simply hemmed. fitted in front

by tapes underneath and plainly
mounted on the foundation skirt. II.
Plated skirts are still liked, and are
either plated their entire length or only
to the knee in front, with an apron
drapery, and sewed on the foundation
skirt. 80.
Plain lower skirts are hemmed and
Sewed to the belt of the foundation, Civ
ing the effect of full gathered round
skirt wherever disclosed by the drapery.
Such skirt is stylish with a striped or
plaided border at the foot, with the Dor
der carried up one or both sides, forming
panel between the front and back
draperies, if there are any draperies.
A pretty and easily made skirt in two
materials. or two colOrs of the same ma

sash drapery arranged in one long loop
and two ends, the skirt being trimmed
and mounted on the universal founda-
ton skirt. The basque to accompany
the skirt was of fawn color, with vest,
collar and cuffs of brown.
